MSB, the Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency has purchased 2wcom’s FlexMon FM02 receivers as part of its national infrastructure for Public Early Warning messages in case of disaster.

The FM and RDS measurement and monitoring functionality of the FlexMon FM02 was enhanced for this project with the ability to monitor early warning messages and switch to the national EWR channel.

“For an application such as this, which is concerned with national response to emergencies, the technology we choose must be exceptionally reliable and adaptable to our very specific requirements,” said Lars Olsson, MSB, Senior Service Manager. “We are impressed with the quality assurance at 2wcom and the versatility of the FM02 units, which allows us to implement our project goals precisely.”
